There's a reason Microsoft gave Windows 10 away for free.
Yeah because since 8.0 its been a turd
They didn't. You still have to pay for a registration key.
@@maxz69 they did. not anymore though. They gave it away if you had a previous install of windows 7 or 8. They didn't check that the install had a valid license when you upgraded.

@Rocky Roadster i guess you never heard of PRISM, a MASSIVE GLOBAL surveillance program. I guess you also never heard of Patriot Act, the act to conspire as a federal crime upon US citizens, in order to protect the exposure of the nworld o agenda. I guess you also never heard of a large agency facility known for their supercomputers to monitoring, collection, and processing of digital information over the internet.
BTW, when you enter into China airport, you must give all your phones and computers for law enforcements to go through all your data and then they must INSTALL SPYWARES on your devices for their compliance. Do you know what the difference is between China and US about this? One is direct, the other is indirect ATTACK on a person’s privacy, that includes WITHOUT ANY probable cause. Citizen or not, WITH NO PROOF of criminal offense, this is invasion of privacy. But I guess you never knew that either.
Chris, it might be more helpful to provide the correct registry key with backwards slashes instead of dashes between the different key components, like this: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection
That would allow your viewers to copy the key and paste it right into Registry Editor without needing to replace - with \.

this video is 4 years old but worth gold... ty 👍
Thank you so much! Today I was watching a random video on youtube and noticed how slow my pc was.. Apparently this Compatibility Telemetry Service was using at times 98% of CPU !!
I appreciate you explaining how to do this manually. I notice shutup can cause instability.
Thank you so much. Did every step. Was tricky on Win11 because some words were changed but with a little independent thinking, I was able to figure it out. Much appreciations!!!
This is a very good Video. Titus has homed in on what every Win 10 user needs to do to get rid of nasty telemetry. Took us at the refurb shop about a month to find all these things we needed to disable, through trial and error. This Vid covers and correctly shows anyone what to turn off and how to do it. Well Done! And just as stated in the Video, you have to go back after any update to recheck/reset the settings.
Renaming a service which was disabled by many users, that seems nefarious to me. Pretty much in the same league as upgrading from W7 to W10 without the user his permission, turning telemetry back on after an update or reinstalling crapware which the user has uninstalled.

"Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" was named "Diagnostics Tracking Service" in earlier versions of Windows. Also, "dmwappushsvc" is now gone in Services of newer versions of Windows. Dunno yet if it's been renamed as well or removed.

Any news? I don't see either one of them to disable...
@@lorenzmuller3542 can probably find the answer on reddit privacytoolsio
the new name is "Device Management Wireless Application Protocol "
To clear up any confusion about dword32 and qword64.... Most of the entries you will see in Windows 10 registry are DWORD (32-bit) and most of the Windows 10 operating systems in use these days are Windows 64-bit. So if you are running a Windows10 64-bit operating system you will use the Dword32 bit value like he did instead of the Qword64 bit value.
My method. 1.Wipe it from your hard drive. 2. Never ever reinstall this pos operating system.

"Microsoft has mentioned clearly in the description of “Allow Telemetry” option in Group Policy Editor that setting the option to “0 - Security” on Windows 10 Home or Pro editions is equivalent to settings it to “1 - Basic” which you can always change using Settings app without using Group Policy Editor or Registry Editor. Actually settings telemetry option to “0 - Security” only works on Windows 10 Enterprise (including LTSB), Education, IoT and Server editions." (I copy/past from that link)

When I get a more powerful PC in the future, I'd prolly just switch to Linux as my main OS and virtualize Windows for programs that aren't compatible with Linux nor work properly in Wine. For now, I'll have to stick with this heavily tweaked Windows 10.
I'm making me a Linux VM to get accustomed to it, so finally switching to it later would be easier.
In a later Live Stream Video Updating the Tool on Oct 29 2021, Chris describes the WAP Push thing as to do with a button on Routers and Modems to help connect the WLAN. I am not sure if that is really Telemetry then, as he discusses in thins video?
Thank you, Chris. Hideous.

Sorry to bother you on a whole other topic, but I recently installed Manjaro on the same SSD as my Windows 10 OS (Dual Boot) and two days later I installed a new Bios Update for Zen 2 CPUs. Ever since then The Bootmanager for Manjaro is no longer showing up anymore...I can only boot into Windows and Manjaro disappeared in the Boot priority options on the Bios menu too. It still exists on my SSD though (space is still taken). Is there any fix for this other than wiping out the manjaro partition and reinstalling it?
You'd need to reinstall grub but to do that you need to boot into a live CD and fix it there. The easiest way to fix this imo is to use EasyBCD and create a Linux boot menu option in your Windows Boot Loader. neosmart.net/EasyBCD/ is where you get the tool to do this. Here is a how to use EasyBCD guide: www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/257048-dual-boot-windows-7-linux.html
This can happen sometimes with a BIOS update. The boot partition isn't altered, but all non-default UEFI boot entries are removed. It happens on my Lenovo ThinkPad P52 too, whenever I perform a UEFI / BIOS update, all UEFI entries are removed from the BIOS, except the default entry pointing to BOOT\EFI\BOOTx64.efi. This can be resolved by mounting your (V)FAT(xx) partition and renaming grubx64.efi to BOOTx64.efi (it's usually not case sensitive, but for some firmware it can be...) and you'll never have to worry about that problem again. Caution though: Doing so would cause Microsoft Windows to be unable to boot using the default UEFI entry, but you could chainload Microsoft Windows 10 using grub, by doing the following example (adjustment might be needed, depending on your configuration):
Create a file called /etc/grub.d/40_windows file:
menuentry 'Microsoft Windows 10' {
search --fs-uuid --no-floppy --set=root AABB-CCDD
chainloader (${root})/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}
(replace AABB-CCDD with the UUID of your Microsoft Windows partition)
Run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/(vendor)/grub.cfg (be sure to overwrite the current grub config file).
Since you're obviously using a recent (AMD) motherboard, you have UEFI firmware, and the firmware/bios update probably nuked the grub boot entry in NVRAM. You can use the efibootmgr utility on a Linux live DVD/USB to add the grub entry back in. Also, if the firmware has a built-in UEFI shell, you can enter setup and drop into the DOS-like shell and add the grub entry there - or just re-install grub again and it will make the NVRAM entry for you. A good place to learn about UEFI is to study Rod Smith's documentation for the rEFInd boot manager at his web site. He's a technical writer, so his docs are excellent. The Wilkipedia pages on UEFI and GPT are also quite useful. I can't emphasize enough that UEFI and GPT work VERY differently than the old BIOS and mbr schemes.
O&O shutup caused my microphone to stop working even though it was visible and connected to my computer
Just turn that microphone block off when used. That's what I did. Then just put it back on once finished.
How come your screen recording keeps flickering out of focus?
You can disable the services that report the telemetry, but you cannot actually fully disengage it. It has CEIP under the hood so any time anyone uses a Microsoft Operating system, they have direct access to it whether you turn these services off or not. (It's not recommended, because it screws many things up...)
I honestly got so actively frustrated with Windows 10's behavior AND infuriated at Microsoft deciding in version 1703 that they were just going to start FORCING people to get updates, even people on Pro (like me) that I just said "Fuck this" and completely disabled the Windows Update service. Not just the services.msc service, but I actually went and used my admin power to "Take Ownership" of the Windows Trusted Installer Service and removed all rights to it to anyone or anything but me personally. That's right, not even the SYSTEM can access this service anymore. This means NO windows updates, NO Windows mysteriously turning the update service back on after it was disabled. NOTHING. Windows just... runs. and that's it. I also disabled all the telemetry crap as you have here, stripped out ALL of the microsoft store apps and crap and disabled Cortana in the same way that I disabled Windows Update.
My Windows 10 is still on 1607 and has not had a patch or update in YEARS. I love it. it runs fast, and I have yet to have a single issue with it. I also use Classic shell because Microsoft can go pound sand with that shitty Win10 menu.
At this point I keep a copy of the 1607 version installer on a DVD ready to do reinstalls for new PCs. The beauty of it is, with the "Windows as a Service" model, Drivers and other critical things that would be quickly deprecated in older iterations of WIndows will last for YEARS because all Microsoft is doing is tweaking the UI, while the core remains much the same. As long as it says "Windows 10" I'll be juuuuust fine.
Thank you, you saved me.
Last time I tried, a major update resets everything :( MS you're lucky we don't have a National Linux Desktop Standard.

@@GustavoMsTrashCan That is a pretty big assumption there.. I have been running an Arch Linux server for the last three years, which I recently moved to Debian stable.. And the last 1 year has been spent distro hopping until I settled on to windows as the OS which fulfills most of my requirements with the least amount of effort.. And I've used various distros since 2004, so I don't think I've judged Linux too quickly.. Some of us have a pretty stressful day job and don't want to spend our off time reading through source code trying to get their audio device working.. We just want to watch some videos and make useless posts on CZcams as a change..
what was the second service i think you abbreviated it dmw? Thanks!
As a bit of a weird aside I have Windows 7 running. So I did a run search for telemetry. I got some weird files from about 2012 onwards. For instance there's a text file called telemetry shutdown time and if I open it I get a number and nothing else. How many times I have shut down the computer? I am not saying that is necessarily bad. But weird. Not that I will be in Windows 7 for much longer anyway - going to Linux and if I need any windows I will run 8.1 [I have the disk] in a VM.
Chris 4:30 how will all that disabled access to like file systems, background apps and more affect 3rd party Antivirus applications? Will those changes interfere?
how about setting a non existant IP to the telemetry proxy server setting?
This is possible, also custom routes on the gateway work as well. It does mess up Skype a bit, but past that not many side effects.
@@ChrisTitusTech nice. i did that spontaneously as an additional measure but i'm not wiresharking my line so i'm not sure if the service automagically bypasses the setting in case of repeated timeouts.

@@ChrisTitusTech A good solution for making ISO's like this easily is NTLite (both available in Free and Paid edition). I'm not sure whether you're already familiar with it, but I can really recommend it. It can actually remove a lot (if not all) of the spyware settings and make a working ISO image in a matter of 10 - 15 minutes which you can use for at least half a year. On the PC's where I'm FORCED to used Microsoft Windows (unfortunately) I've been using installations, based on media from that on both AMD and Intel machines and it's actually been running more reliable then the average vanilla Microsoft Windows ISO, and I'm not the standard desktop user (using Component Services, ODBC Data Sources, a variety of business VPN clients etc.). No more candy crush in a clean installation, no more cortana etc. Completely removed and gone.
That's a winner. There was also the De-Bloat thing he pointed out, a couple of weeks ago, which I've used on all my guest Win-10 installs.
There is a quick and obvious answer to this. Linux.
There are quite possibly things you need to do, that can only be done in Windows. For that, a dual-boot is one option. Another is VirtualBox, or any one of about 8 other virtual_machine programs. VMware is one example.
It would be an option to have Windows with VirtualBox in it, and then some version of Linux inside that. Windows is also pretty much making their own built-in virtual_machine, especially for Linux. I ... encourage that, but... How did I put this once before? I don't want to buy a fancy new condom in a fancy new packet, and then tuck the whole thing (still in the wrapper) inside my foreskin to protect it from girl's_germs. I'd prefer to tuck my poor delicate package inside a nice new heavy duty condom to protect it, from what-ever the world decides to throw at it. I am reasonably ok with running Windows inside a virtual machine, inside Linux, as long as I am not doing the majority of my work, or anything I would prefer to keep secret...
There are a couple of use cases where I'd run Windows, on bare metal. One is if I had some fairly obscure or uncommon piece of hardware. Let's say, as one example, I bought a tv receiver / capture / tuner card. (I know about that one, because I've done it...) Or maybe a new 3d printer. It's not a ubiquitous piece of hardware. There WILL be a Windows driver for it. There's unlikely to be a Linux driver for it.
Another case, if you're a hard core enthusiast gamer, and the difference between 60 frames / sec and 130 means life & death to you, then have a copy of Windows, on bare metal, and run your gaming on that. Then have a 2nd hard drive (SSD maybe) and run Linux off that. The two don't need to mess with each other at all. This way, you get full performance gaming, and you have a Windows install in case there's something that only can or does work in Windows, but you are free to do most of your day-to-day stuff in Linux. That's not what I would do, but then I'm not a hard-core gamer.
What I would most avoid doing, is use Windows as my default, to do or to watch or to research anything I wouldn't like my wife to know, or my kids, or my parents, or my local priest, or the local cops. Or the NSA, the CIA or any branch of US civilian or military intelligence. I like to look at a little bit of pawn every now & then. Mostly what I like, would not get me in any real trouble. I'm not into children, animals, dead bodies, pain & torture, urine or scat or anything else like that. I have one (sorta kinda) fetish, which I'm not going to talk about, but there's no particular law against it. My point is, if I had anything I particularly didn't want the world (and the Pope, and the cops) to know about, I really REALLY wouldn't even mention it on or near a Windows box. That's not quite as insecure as posting updates about it on facebook, but you're very much headed in that direction... ANY Linux install, is way more secure in this regard. I would suggest going to DistroWatch, and making a note of maybe the top 20 installs they list, and starting out by trying one of those. If you're not familiar, Ubuntu is one pretty good place to start, and so is Linux Mint. (Which I use and swear by and have for over a decade.)
Thanks man! :)

2 of 4 ..but sometime later in a live stream, Redesigning the Toolbox, Oct 29 2021 these two were also in a later section, # Service tweaks to Manual
3 of 4
The Undo Essential Tweaks in your latest Toolbox script does not seem to put the things back as they were when I have used it
4 of 4
So I think the implementation of these two things in your script is currently in a bit of a muddle
You are good. Thank you.
Win7 on all my PCs & server. No 10 for me, thank you.
And yea, Microsoft totally sucks. Totally.
Odd thing about ShutUp10: I did "Apply only recommended settings" and it failed to disable automatic search the Web from taskbar. I had to manually regedit that (i.e. Create an AllowCortana entry).
p.s. Thanks for the vid!
Do you maybe have a script that will run trough all registry files and delete left overs from uninstalled software. If possible to set a what word to contain for example evernote.
isnt it better to but a bat file here to do that? you need to do it after every update i guess
Cheers Chris
Hi Chris,
for a business environment, what can i do to windows 11 to protect from snooping?
Can you put together a ISO guide with NTLite
I don't mind paying?
Your best bet is to not use Windows 11.
I have an extra task in Task Scheduler Library → Microsoft → Windows → Application Experience, named "PcaPatchDbTask". Any idea what this is? The description says "Updates compatibility database". I currently use version 20H2.
Did you disable this too?
Thanks a lot for this fix, could u please also show us how to completely remove Windows Defender if its possible?
Via regedit, you can do this
After i watch this Ok Linux here i go.
Little hard to follow for us non-Geek's but O&O hut up windows 10 sounds ok.
in the end it didnt work for me , my system is lagging like a b**ch as its hogging MORE system rss and bandwith . and when i stop in seconds it goes up even more. might be better to fire gates and replace him with GROOT.
thank you Chris
OMG This operating system is a fuc*i*g joke, I'm switching to Linux I had some issues last time but overall it was a fun experience.
Windows 10 is such a hassle with Bloatware and Telemerty -_-
What are the services called now on 1903 win 10 update??
what is your personal fevourite distro?
My cpu can cool down now , tnx
Thank you!
What's the new name for the dmw one at 1:30?
I can't find whatever it's been changed to.
Device Management Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) Push Message Routing Service”.
Disable it completely by switching to Linux.
Me too, 15+ years ago.
